Best DMV to go to?
What's the best DMV to go to around the south/east/peninsula? I'm talking about the shortest lines, etc. Im used to going to the fremont one, but now that Hayward is closed its an even bigger nightmare to go there. Anyone know of a low volume DMV around? Any help is appreciated!

Any DMV is usually quick if you get there like 10 min. before it opens. I only go to SF and Daly City, and they're the most crowded ones. If I do this, there are usually about 10-15 people lined up waiting at the door, but there are enough clerks to handle them in about 5 min. and then it's your turn.

Even though it isn't in the OP's range, I have to give my vote to the SF DMV near the Panhandle. They get it done quickly there, which surprised me considering the volume of customers.
The exact opposite and worst DMV I've been to is Daly City. Just a zoo.

Daly City DMV is horrible. I've gone there for pretty much everything including permit/license testing, title/registration, and more. Workers are rude (ha.) and it's just crowded in there.
The San Mateo DMV is awesome. I've only been here once but it was my best DMV experience. The staff is a lot more friendlier and there's barely any lines (I even went in around 4pm!).
